Intimate Knowledge, The Plan & Coveting Claire

Her Keeper1, The Plan & Coveting Claire

A Canadian, currently living in England, I
combine my writing with my career as an international teacher. I
have worked in many different countries where I have had the
opportunity to participate in their culture and make wonderful
friends. Before teaching, I was a photographer in the Canadian Air
Force. In those days women were scarce in the military and we were
lucky to have our pick of so many alpha men. I married one of them
and we were blessed with a beautiful daughter.

I love the glamorous world of fashion and the
world of film and television so that is where the action is set in
my Choices Series. Hot cops are a turn on and thrillers intrigue me
so I explore these in my ongoing Detectives & Desires Series. I
spent a number of years in the Canadian Rockies and the Ranchlands
of Alberta and that inspired my Hope Junction Series with Stormy
Night Publications. It is set in a small town in the Wyoming
Rockies.

I also have a series of stand-alone short
stories planned around The Raffertys - a family with hot alpha
males and feisty women who we first met in Intimate Knowledge and
Her Keeper. Look out for the first in the series, Her Forbidden
Spring. In addition to Her Forbidden Spring, I'm working on the
next episodes in my e-serials as well as the next book in the Hope
Junction Series.

I write stories I love to read. My students
will tell you I am cynical but the fact is - scratch a cynic and
you find a romantic underneath! So I really am a romantic at heart
and write and devour romance of any kind. Naturally I write
romantic love stories. I love strong yet nice guy, tender heroes -
the bad boy has never really grabbed me - well okay maybe once or
twice but I never let him hold on for that long!

I have been lucky to teach media and film for
years and l am a big fan of romantic comedy, as well as crime and
supernatural films and television. I particularly love the ones
with a great enduring love story mixed with intrigue where they are
friends as well - like Bones and Vampire Diaries. My love stories
are a combination of these - enduring friendships and feuds,
romance, alpha males, strong females, bad boys and girls we love to
hate, along with cast of characters and a dollop of tongue in cheek
humor here and there. My other characters will often have their own
love stories in their series while still following the original
couples.

The year a mutual friend
introduces Hollywood haute couture designer Julian West to feature
reporter Claire Fitzpatrick they are both grieving the loss of a
loved one - Julian his film star wife and Claire her adoring
father. Regardless, it is the start of an enduring friendship. A
friendship where both comfortably forget the sizzling attraction
that flared between them when they first met. Now, six years on,
that attraction has re-emerged and Julian and Claire discover that
the compatibility they share as best friends is echoed in their
erotic preferences. When Julian spanks Claire, she is surprised at
how much his short, swift discipline arouses her. As their romance
blossoms, it is not long before he takes her across his knee to
deliver lengthier bare bottomed spankings both erotic and
disciplinary. 

But neither of them is
prepared for the deep love they each come to feel, but are unsure
the other shares. When Claire's ex-lover reappears on the scene and
Claire suspects Julian has never stopped loving his late wife,
their doubts and fears ignite passions that will either bind them
irrevocably together or tear them apart. When they are finally
faced with the release of overwhelming emotions Julian has spent
years repressing, the couple must decide if they will go their
separate ways or if theirs will be a love designed to
last. 

HIS By Design is an erotic
romance with explicit sexual content. It features an independent
woman, a hot alpha male Hollywood designer and a determined
ex-lover. Expect hot sex, spanking, cuffing with leather
restraints, domestic discipline, and some elements of BDSM. All
wrapped up in an exploration of grief, fear and the ultimate power
of a love that has been brewing for years!
